The Trade...

Well, I did something I never thought I would do. I traded my Sig P220 Sport last night. It all started last Saturday when I traded a Glock 26 for a Glock 38 with a fella from VA guntrader.

I have been shooting 45 GAP for a couple years now and have been carrying a Glock 39 as my EDC since last spring. I love the 39 - 45ACP performance in a Baby Glock package. I have built up a GAP stable. I have an OD Glock 37, OD Glock 38, OD Glock 39, black Glock 39 and a Springfield XD45LE Tactical with another XD45LE Tactical on layaway at a local gun store. Basically, I am sold on the GAP. I picked up a Glock 26 in a trade, and already had 2 other Glock 26s. I love the baby Glocks and like having multiples of the guns I shoot often. I put the extra Glock 26 up for trade for a 38 and made the trade on Saturday. While there, I traded a bunch of 45 ACP ammo for GAP ammo with the fella and mentioned the only 45 ACP gun I had left was my P220 Sport and I didn't shoot it often (once in the last year) so the GAP ammo was of more use to me than the ACP ammo.

Saturday night, the fella contacts me to ask what it would take to trade for my P220. He initially offered a Glock 37, Galco shoulder holster and asked how much GAP ammo it would take to make the trade. He didn't realize it was a P220 sport. I told him I never thought of selling it and it would have to be a good offer to make me give it up - even though it was a safe queen. The offer he came back with was a Glock 37 (3 mags), Glock 39 (3 mags), Galco holster and 2000 rounds of 45 GAP ammunition. That did it. I made the deal.

Plus I now have tons of ammo for the range and self defense (his 2000 rounds added to about 3000 rounds I had on hand). I have been buying up GAP ammo since I started shooting it, speaking of which UPS should be dropping off 300 rounds of Speer Gold Dot this afternoon.

I'm sorry if I bored you. I just felt like sharing...
